An 8-year-old boy died after suffering life-threatening injuries in a two-vehicle wreck Friday evening on Spur 327, according to a Lubbock Police Department incident report.

The boy, Mark Castro, was in the back seat of 24-year-old Roberta Camacho's 1989 Toyota Corolla, which was disabled and parked on the side of the road, when a 2007 Lincoln Navigator, driven by 28-year-old Marissa Chadis, collided with the Corolla after exiting Spur 327 around 10:18 p.m.

The collision caused Chadis' vehicle to roll as it traveled westbound, according to the report.
